Name: Qilin
Type: Mammal
Malevolent: When threatened
Sentient: No
The Qilin is a four legged antlered creature that is known for it's vivid scales. Coming in a variety of colors, it's scales are highly appraised for their beauty and as a result many attempt to hunt the Qilin. Unfortunately, this is an incredibly difficult task. Despite their brightly colored scales, they are nearly impossible to track due to the fact that they leave no trail. It is said that they walk on grass without harming a single blade. This combined with their incredible speed makes it nearly impossible to catch one. Their scales are also incredibly resilient, making it difficult to penetrate and if cornered will not hesitate to use it's antlers and hooves to defend itself. On the few chances a Qilin is caught and killed, it's scales must be harvested quickly as they lose their toughness once the creature dies, becoming fragile and brittle. As a result, they cannot be used as armor, much to the dismay of many. However, they do not lose their color and shine and are primarily used on high class clothing and other decorative ways.
